If anything it will create a market (and technologies) for co2 capture.
Comment on Google Deploying Huge CO2 Battery Facilities with Company Energy Dome
acosmichippo@lemmy.world 3 days agolet’s assume eventually 100% of this CO2 is eventually released into the atmosphere.
is that any less green than grid storage batteries built from massive amounts of mined metals with an enormous CO2 footprint?

From the IEEE article
If the worst happens and the dome is punctured, 2,000 tonnes of CO2 will enter the atmosphere. That’s equivalent to the emissions of about 15 round-trip flights between New York and London on a Boeing 777. “It’s negligible compared to the emissions of a coal plant,” Spadacini says. People will also need to stay back 70 meters or more until the air clears, he says.
